Accounting Workshop based in Ashford, Kent to tackle 50km Peak District challenge to raise money for

Date Posted: 16 Aug 2016

Accounting Workshop based in Ashford, Kent to complete sponsored 50km trek across the Peak District to raise money for The Kent Foundation.

Ashford based Accounting Workshop have chosen us, The Kent Foundation as their chosen charity to raise money for this year. They first found out about the charity earlier this year at a seminar that the charity Director, Paul Barron was speaking at.

They were intrigued by the charity's free business support that is on offer to Kent's young people who want to start or grow a business. Being in business themselves meant that they could really relate to how this kind of support provides that opportunity for a young person to make a real success of their business idea and make a career out of it. 

Lisa Brown, Senior Partner of Accounting Workshop said:

“At Accounting Workshop we like to support a specific charity each year. This year we had decided on the event to challenge us but not the charity we would like to support when my colleague Georgie and I attended a network event at which Paul from The Kent Foundation was speaking. We immediately looked at each other and realised we had found the perfect charity for us. We like to support new businesses as much as we can and this charity helps young entrepreneurs to achieve their ambitions with coaching and practical advice."

We hope that we can raise £1,500.00 in support of The Kent Foundation, please sponsor us on the link below to help us reach our target:
